"We tried various other ways to mitigate the water coming into our basement - inside French drain, outside French drain, regarding the backyard - but nothing fully worked. EveryDry did a full remediation of our basement and FINALLY completely resolved our water issues. It's been a year and we haven't had a drop enter."

"Excellent. Called to get work done timely and stayed until the job was completed. Nate Klingenberger completed the basement wall and drain work, reviewing each step with us to make certain we understood what he was doing and were happy with the entire job. Mike and his assistant did the work on the concrete steps. Explained everything and did an excellent job of doing a complete clean-up and made sure we were satisfied with the job."

"Stay Dry Waterproofing did some crawlspace work for me. Some of the interior walls were separating from the ceiling, due to a soil expansion problem, so they installed foundation support beams which fixed the problem. They also cleaned/fumagated the crawlspace because they found some fungus/mold. Lastly, they installed an interior perimeter drain system that they connected to the existing waterpump basin. I am absolutely satisfied with all the work! The crew did a great job! I spoke to the crew lead a couple times during the project and he took the time to explain, in detail, everything they were doing and how it was going...he was very informative. It made me confident they were on top of things. Mark Menton (Company President) did the initial inspection which led to work being done. He took photos to show his findings and went over everything in detail and provided me with different options to solve the issues. He was easy to work with and a true professional. After we agreed on the best approach to address the problems he provided an itemized cost list for the project. The cost was very reasonable and very competitive to other estimates I had done. I went with Stay Dry Waterproofing because of their high ratings on their reviews and Mark's professionalism...I'm glad I did. I highly recommend them!"

"They did successfully stop the leak around the water supply pipe.
The problems started in the week prior to the scheduled work day when I requested that they use schedule 40 pipe.  I made it clear I was willing to pay the difference but was told that they don't ever use schedule 40 because it's "too hard to work with."  I wasn't happy with the answer but had already paid a down-payment and had the work scheduled for almost a month and they told me that schedule 30 is "virtually indestructible" and "would hold up to driving a car over it" so I agreed and went ahead with the work.
A crew of three showed up on time for the job and was doing a good job starting the work, but within the first few hours it was obvious there was no way they would get the job done in one day as expected, so in the afternoon, an additional 5 or 6 workers showed up. Things went downhill from then on.  The first crew was being careful and replacing the old pipe with new to minimize the damage to landscaping and asking me what I wanted if they ran into any problems.  They made sure the new pipe had a downhill grade to the curb, glued the pipe sections together as previously agreed, and replaced dirt / landscaping in an acceptable manner.  The new crew just dug new trenches where ever was most convenient so some of the pipe didn't end up with a downhill grade and they didn't glue sections together.
Since much of the new pipe was laid in new trenches, the displaced dirt wouldn't fit back in the trenches, so it was piled up on top leaving a 4 inch high "gopher trail" in the yard.  Rock displaced by digging under the sidewalk ended up in the yard and when I pointed it out to one of the workers, he said that it the rocks would sink down in the dirt over time.  That was when I realized it was pointless to try to get them to fix anything they did wrong.
Over the following weeks when we fixed their work, we found that some of the sod was buried under dirt and some just thrown back upside down.  When I was digging a hole to re-plant one of the bushes they neglected to replace, a fairly light push on the shovel easily went right through the new pipe.
Needless to say, I am not pleased with the work.  Maybe the Basement Doctor should stick to basement repairs and leave outside trenching to someone else.   I used them because of a referral from another company a friend had used, but my experience with them is the main reason I signed up with Angie's List.

French Drains questions, answered by experts

To get rid of a sewer smell in your crawl space, you’ll have to find the source of the problem. If it has to do with your sewer lines, then repairing the line will help. You may need to make other repairs, like fixing your sump pump or encapsulating your crawl space to reduce moisture. After you make the repair, depending on the issue, you may still need to clean out your crawl space to get rid of the stink.

With a one-way cleanout, you can access your sewer line from one direction. Depending on the way it curves, a plumber can either access the side of the pipe that goes into your home or the side that goes to your yard. On the other hand, two-way cleanouts allow pros to access both sides of the sewer line, thanks to their dual-pipe design (they’re usually U-shaped).

Knowing the signs can alert you to a clogged drain line. Clogs cause slow drainage or cause no drainage (if there’s a complete blockage). You may also notice foul odors, gurgling noises, water backing up in other appliances on the same line, or a poorly flushing toilet. If you experience any of these issues and think your line might be clogged, call a plumber.

If you've discovered a rather frightening buildup of brown and black gunk below your shower cover, you're not alone. The smelly sludge is often a collection of mildew and biofilm. Biofilm comes from the breakdown of soap scum, hair, skin cells, and bacteria that collects during shower time. It's quite common in a humid space and relatively easy to clean with a gentle DIY cleaning solution such as baking soda and vinegar.

If you leave liquid drain cleaner for too long, it will start breaking down your drainpipes. The chemicals in these cleaners can cause cracks, corrosion, and leaks in your pipes. They can also damage plumbing fixtures and even cause environmental damage if left too long without rinsing away.
